Sights & Landmarks
The Big Buddha, an enormous marble statue situated on a mountain peak, offers breathtaking panoramic vistas of Phuket Island. Visitors can also explore a nearby café and gift shop. However, many tourists prefer to spend a day or two visiting other noteworthy attractions like the Wat Chalong temple and the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary. These sights are quite distant from the beaches, but Phuket Town serves as a convenient hub for public transportation to both cultural landmarks and coastal destinations.
